Although I love the Square, they aren’t doing a great job of promoting great shows that are happening locally (only philly, dc & bmore). So, for those Dickinsonians that have some wheels and are in the mood for a fun show this weekend, drive out to Lemoyne (yes, Lemoyne) and check out Ted Leo & the Pharmacists at Championship Records (The Champ!). The Champ usually lends itself more to the hardcore scene but are somehow changing their ways for the evening. $10 in advance $12 at the door. This show was rescheduled from a few months ago so hopefully it goes off without a hitch this time around. See ya there!

Outside the Box
Outside the box is on the air Fridays from noon to 1 pm. Playing an eclectic array of tunes from all genres (except country) there is something for everyone!
DJ Meetings
It’s that time again, the time when new & old djs alike come together to prepare for another excellent year of WDCV radio broadcasts. We will be in Tome 112 Wednesday Sept. 8th & Thursday Sept. 9th at 7pm. You only need to attend one if you want to be dj but you do have to attend one to fill out your application and learn all about WDCV. We have made upgrades to the station over the summer and have some grand plans for the semester and we can’t wait to tell you about all of them. We hope to see you all there!
Buttons. Buttons. Buttons.
We finally have buttons! Now, who wants one?
WDCV article in the Dickinson Magazine
The Dickinson Magazine wrote up a nice article about the station and some alumni who had been very involved in WDCV over the years. Recent grad (and sorely missed exec member ) Lacey Smith was also interviewed for the article. Here is the link to that article on the web but it lacks some of the images so I also attached a PDF straight from the print copy. Kudos to all involved!
Apply to be on our Exec Board!!
It’s that time again….the changing of the guard if you will. We need some fresh minds to join the station exec staff so we can keep up the momentum that we achieved this semester. Please fill out our application ASAP so we can get all of the new staff confirmed before the semester ends. We need people to fill all sorts of positions so if you have a skill, I’m sure we can find a way to utilize it at the station. Everyone has something to bring to the table and we look forward to getting more people involved.
We beat Pitchfork to the punch!
This past weekend WDCV brought Wiz Khalifa to town for Saturday’s hip-hop night of our Rock-Hop weekend. His new mix tape, Kush & OJ, came out just a few days earlier. Despite pitchfork’s snobbery of having their finger on the pulse of new, underground music, we were a step ahead of them on this one. WOOT! Check out their review, they gave his mixtape a 7.2. Not bad. Not bad at all.
Wiz Khalifa Ticket Information
***********WARNING: WDCV will not be accepting any more ticket reservations starting Friday at 4pm. OR if we get more than 250.**********
To those of you who are unaware, WDCV 88.3 FM, Dickinson’s radio station, is hosting two concerts this weekend, April 16th and 17th. However, people have come to us with questions and misconceptions, and we wish to clarify some things, particularly regarding tickets for the Saturday night Wiz Khalifa concert.
Admission for both nights is FREE with your Dickinson College ID.
Tickets are also available for those without a Dickinson College ID. The price is $10 (CASH ONLY) and they are first come, first serve basis. Tickets can be reserved in advance by emailing wdcvfm@gmail.com. You may reserve multiple tickets. Reserve tickets can be picked up when the doors open at 7PM and must be retrieved before 7:30PM.
Because the Wiz Khalifa concert is free to Dickinson students, and because we have great interest from people outside the Dickinson community, we recommend coming to the concert as close to 7pm as possible. ATS has a limited capacity of 1000 people, and we will not be able to let more people in once that number is reached.
Doors open at 7PM and the concert begins at 8PM. If you plan on buying tickets please arrive early as we are expecting a large crowd for the event.
Thank you very much, and we hope to see as many of you as possible at the concert.

Live on Britton Plaza
It’s that time again…the sun is shining…the students are lounging in the grass….is there a better time to crank WDCV’s tunes in Britton Plaza? Not really. We have already set up twice this week and next week we will be out again 4 more times with the week ending with our HUGE Rock-Hop Weekend full of live music in ATS.
